The rope of a dinner bell (outside) comes in from above and is fastened on nail by window. (As curtain ascends there is a knock at the door; no one answers; another knock, and in a moment Martin Muldon, a trampish looking fellow, sticks his head in the door; seeing nobody, he enters and looks about him.) Mart. (looking at paper in his hand). This must be the domicile. I slumbered in the feathers at a neighboring house last night and me optics discerned this advertisement in the weekly paper which is published every month. (Reads.) "Wanted, a man to help on a farm. Bachelor or widower preferred. Might consider matrimony with the proper party; Huldah Perkins." (Looks up.) I'm neither married nor a widower, - I'm a democrat, but democrats sometimes get into trouble. Ill take a look over the farm and see if it's got any stumps or mortgages on it. (Exits softly. Enter Huld. with two or three letters in her hand. Huld. It beats all how we country people is favored. The Congressman what invented Free Rural Delivery oughter have a bigger headstun than the doctor what got up pink pills for pale people. I advertised in the weekly Whangdoodle only las' month, and here's three answers fetched right at my door. (Sits down in rocker and wipes her specs.)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An incomparable collection of stimulating math puzzles from bestselling author Paul Nahin What does quilting have to do with electric circuit theory? The answer is just one of the fascinating ways that best-selling popular math writer Paul Nahin illustrates the deep interplay of math and physics in the world around us in his latest book of challenging mathematical puzzles, Mrs. Perkins's Electric Quilt. With his trademark combination of intriguing mathematical problems and the historical anecdotes surrounding them, Nahin invites readers on an exciting and informative exploration of some of the many ways math and physics combine to create something vastly more powerful, useful, and interesting than either is by itself. In a series of brief and largely self-contained chapters, Nahin discusses a wide range of topics in which math and physics are mutually dependent and mutually illuminating, from Newtonian gravity and Newton's laws of mechanics to ballistics, air drag, and electricity. The mathematical subjects range from algebra, trigonometry, geometry, and calculus to differential equations, Fourier series, and theoretical and Monte Carlo probability. Each chapter includes problems—some three dozen in all—that challenge readers to try their hand at applying what they have learned. Just as in his other books of mathematical puzzles, Nahin discusses the historical background of each problem, gives many examples, includes MATLAB codes, and provides complete and detailed solutions at the end. Mrs. Perkins's Electric Quilt will appeal to students interested in new math and physics applications, teachers looking for unusual examples to use in class—and anyone who enjoys popular math books.
